Werewolf idea...I have a dream...(spoiler alert)

...that maybe Wespe could incorporate into one of his patches, that ol' Yeller could be made vulnerable to damage. At least, slightly. The run-hit switches-run-hit more switches works fine if your vamp has celerity but otherwise it's hit and miss. And, c'mon, something that shaggy that doesn't even take damage from fire?
I mean, even if it were built like Ming it would be at least eventually killable. I know that the idea was to have something in the game that violence wouldn't work on, but most other scenarios have ways through that can accomodate various styles-i.e., stealth/obfuscate, persuasion, seduction, combat, speed, domination- but this scenario, unless you've read a walkthrough, move incredibly quickly, or preferably, both, is just annoying. You can't seem to obfuscate so no help there, sneaking doesn't seem to work, so even if yuo manage to find a spot where Fluffy can't get to you, and you wait for the timer, still it somehow manages to get into the cablecar station ahead of you. You can't even trap it (barring the walkthrough killing option).

what makes this even sillier...(spoiler)

...is later on, you find that Nines managed to take out the puppy he was with without aid of hydraulics...

I actually love this mission for what it is. The first couple of times I went through it I thought it was great and freaky/scary as that you couldn't kill it (didn't know you could crush it) and it was always intense. Found it thoroughly enjoyable...

Every time I go through it now, I try and actually avoid it for long enough rather than kill it. Just seems more fun for me...

Anyway, back on point, even if it was more susceptible to damage, when you would try to attack it, it would still destroy you quite easily/quickly...

And anyway, its a unique mission, don't screw around with it...

Killing the werewolf in a normal way is requested quite often and I already looked into it because of that but there is just no way. I tried it believe me. Also Nines had his grenade to help him out with his werewolf...

Not to mention that Nines picked up a permanent scar from his little tete-a-tete and, being a vampire, that shouldn't be possible, so I gotta figure there is something just a little on the extra-spicy side of supernatural about those claws and fangs.
